The Culture of Leadership Initiative (iLead) organized the Department of State's first Leadership Day on December 13, 2016. The purpose of the event was to build and promote leadership development throughout the Department. Employees were invited to submit examples of how they are putting the Department's Leadership and Management Principles into action as well as questions for our high level leadership panel. The event was broadcast on BNET; click here to watch the sessions (Intranet only). AFSA was pleased to be able to participate, and looks forward to having a role in future Leadership Day activities.

If you are interested in getting involved in Leadership Day planning and organization, volunteers are welcome to contact iLead@state.gov or reach out directly to Marja Verloop, Leadership Day chair at VerloopMD@state.gov or Elmira Togliatti at TogliattiEM@state.gov.
